Ex-liberia President, Charles Tailor Openly Blast Obasanjo (video) by alabiman(op): 1:46pm On Jan 04, 2025
Charles Taylor, the former President of Liberia, made some revealing statements on Former President Olusegun Obasanjo at the ICC. during his trial at the Special Court in Sierra Leone.

Taylor's testimony was quite dramatic and comprehensive, as he attempted to distance himself from the Revolutionary United Front (RUF) and shift the blame to the international community.

During his testimony, Taylor disclosed that Obasanjo lied to the world by telling the Western media that he was trying to escaped from Nigeria to Niger Republic during his asylum days in Calabar, Nigeria, while in actual fact, he (Obasanjo) is a betrayal and serial lier.

Charles Tailor gave details account of the incident in the video.

Nobody says good things about Olusegun Obasanjo and that's really bad for a man his age.
Re: Ex-liberia President, Charles Tailor Openly Blast Obasanjo (video) by God1000(m):
We need to hear from Baba Obasanjo, thank God he's still alive to tell his own side of the story


The question now is, did Charles Tailor try to escape from Chad after leaving Nigeria?


Factcheck0001:
who set d foundation for d madness we have today

If obj had done well with electricity then, will we b talking about band A and B today?

If obj has done well with national ID card as far back as early 2000 by now we would have improved on it by having a strong database so people won't come in n mess us up

If obj didn't introduce money politics because of his desperate third term bid we won't b here shouting pay cut for politicians

If obj didn't teach politicians how to write election results on his bed like he taught fayose n co then we won't b cursing jega n inec today

Obj singlehandedly made yaradua president n he even said it at d aftermath election briefing that obj just called him that he's d president


If your obi had contested during obj tenure then u will credit tinubu n co today cos maybe dem go jail your obi for 30 years for Wetin him no do

Ask yourself y obj empowered thugs to remove a sitting governor in oyo state.

Simply because he opposed obj third term ambition
I'm not here to defend Obasanjo, I agree that he made a lot of mistakes but you cannot rule out his achievements both as a military head of state and civilian president.

Don't forget that this same Obasanjo handed over power to a democratically elected government of Alhaji shehu shagari in October 1st 1979, it was a landmark achievement given the fact that he was the first military head of state in Africa to have handed over power promptly to an elected civilian administration

Donald trump of America with all the scandals and unconstitutional behavior during his first term is being worshipped today by you guys, he was even impeached twice by the house of representatives

Only indomie generation supports obj cos many of them don't even know anything about him

The other sets of people who supports obj are those who believe election started in 2023

Obj is d definition of everything wrong with a nation, the old man had d chance to reposition Nigeria but did far worse. He was given an open book to write his name in greatness but messed it up

Obj started money politics in Nigeria, many governors made it clear they were given huge cash to support obj third term

We all complain politics is lucrative today n they take too much money, ask yourself who increased their money cos of his 3rd term ambition?

The national grid we complain about today, this same obj took 16 billion dollars loan for electricity only to share it among his cronies

The national ID card money that dagrin sang about we all know obj did us dirty with that

Obj today is talking about free n fair elections, the same man fayose made it clear they wrote election results on his bed?

To those supporting obj today, many of u are insulting jega. I guess u haven't heard of the name Maurice iwu before?

Same man that declared election winners even when election materials haven't gotten to d electorate,like some people were still on queue voting n election results were announced

All those supporting obj today don't even know anything about him, he sends political rivals to jail at will n frustrate them till they fold

Many politicians are insulting tinubu today n he doesn't send, eedris Abdul Kareem sang jagajaga n he had to run away cos obj was looking for him

If those supporting obj today we're around during his government they will hail tinubu n co as angels

Which resources did he have that Escobar doesn't have today? Escobar has the guts to remove fuel subsidy. Now, inflation has reached its record highs in Nigeria. Yet, that drug lord is still going about borrowing money. What does Escobar do with Nigeria's money? Perhaps looting it for vote-buying in 2027? Stealing away the future of young people.

If reasonable people are criticizing Obasanjo, agbadorians shouldn't even be talking because they are the most useless things that ever walked the surface of the earth. Useless youths who have been paid to defend whatever E-Bola and his clueless administration shove down the people's throats.

OBJ will never support Nigeria greatness, he want to be Nigeria life president like other African countries, but failed , that is why he will ever be against any President.

He thought he could do it but Nigerians pushed him out.

how much was dollar to Naira in 99?
How much was fuel per barrel in 99?

I am right that I need to know your age before engaging u n u confirm it

Some of u are supporting obj cos he's against d tinubu that u hate n u can hug anyone against tinubu even if he's d devil

I can bet u are a kid during obj tenure but let me tell u one thing, obj supporting obi is not because he loves obi but because he had no option

Ask me y

Tinubu stopped PDP from taking Lagos when he was governor n even when obj seized his local government allocation tinubu still excelled n to crown it all it was tinubu that sponsored the otoge movement in Ogun state that stopped obj daughter iyabo n obj cousin from colonising Ogun state.

I believe u get y he can't support tinubu


As for atiku, obj n atiku are both thieves but atiku outsmarted obj. Check d haliborton scandal, coca cola scandals, sales of Nigeria properties to friends n cronies

Atiku used fronts to buy all those things from obj at cheaper rate only for obj to know d owner later on n even used yaradua to collect some of d properties back when he realised atiku outsmarted him

Go n read how obj described atiku in his book "my watch" n u will see y he can't support atiku


As for obi, obj sees him as another puppet like yaradua or Jonathan that he can control at will.

Oya check am, shey na tinubu or atiku obj go order around?

Don't think obj is supporting obi because of his love for Nigeria, check d past n see that he had no option

OBJ did the right thing in Taylors case. I remember the story very well.

Nigeria spent so much on ECOMOG because there was no peace in Sierra Leone and Liberia all because of Charles Taylor, Samuel Doe, Yormie Johnson and a few others. Taking him and others out of the picture stabilised the region.

Chief, most of these folks were kids during OBJ tenure.. Don't bother engage them.

They don't know OBJ had the WORST administration since 1999 and LAID THE BAD FOUNDATION which had affected the country since.. is it NA members, 3rd term bid, Governors impeachment, privatization, Power, Refinery, you name it.

These kids online don't know. But posterity will judge all former bad leaders.

All these gibberish you listed have no bearing on the economy of the average Haruna, Dike and Tope on the streets and villages in Nigeria.

How did Obasanjo impoverish Nigerians compared to the preceding government? What was the inflation stats? What and what was affordable and the technological advancement made.

Let's make sense of this debate as it relates to the average man on the street and in villages

One thing most people fail to understand in governance is that the government can be judged good or bad when the populace begins to complain and grumble and not when politicians shout, cry and take up arms against each other.

People are just concerned about where and when the next meal comes and not who is the President.

Singlehandedly removed Ambode who was doing well as a governor.
